Watch out for memory leaks - run the monitors, and if you see that it climbs on your 
application, you need to insert routines here and there that do a ZIP RETURN to free 
up the memory.  If you run out on W2K (and I am assuming XP is the same, as it has the 
same code base) it just crashes.  Interesting effects on your database - NOT.

In some of our apps running off W2K workstations we have put a block in the main menu 
call that runs a ZIP RETURN every third time through.
